Answer:
x=-5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2+4/10 for example
in a decimal way: 1/2+4/10 = 0.5+0.4. add those two and it is 0.9
in a fraction: 1/2+4/10 = 5/10+4/10. add the numerators, which is 9, and you keep the denominator so it is 9/10
The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.
If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:
2x+6=3x-8
-3x -3x
-x+6=-8
-6 -6
-x=-14
/-1 /-1
x=14
Answer:
8 footballs
18 basketballs
36 baseballs
24 softballs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let f = footballs
f = 8
Let b = basketballs
b = 2+2f = 2 +2(8) = 2 +16 = 18
Let B = baseballs
B = 5f -4 = 5(8) -4 = 40-4 = 36
Let s = softballs
s = 6+1/2B = 6+1/2(36) = 6+18 = 24
The total is 86
f+b+B +s = 86
8+18+36+24 = 86
86=86
It’s A because it’s just asking for the domain (x)
